Join us the first Tuesday of every month at 6 p.m. for a lively discussion. This month's selection is The Almost Moon by Alice Sebold. For years Helen Knightly has given her life to others: to her haunted mother, to her enigmatic father, to her husband and now grown children. When she finally crosses a terrible boundary, her life comes rushing in at her in a way she never could have imagined. Unfolding over the next twenty-four hours, this searing, fast-paced novel explores the complex ties between mothers and daughters, wives and lovers, the meaning of devotion, and the line between love and hate.

Six week English language workshops for intermediate to advanced speakers. The workshops focus on building practical English that you can use every day. Classes meet once a week at the library for six weeks. Classes facilitated by University of Central Florida School of Teaching, Learning, and Leadership, and participants may have the ability to practice with a partner outside of scheduled class times. This class combines classroom learning and opportunities for personal practice.
Recommended pre-requisites: Intermediate to advanced English language skills. Work with ELLIS, USALearns and/or Practice Makes Perfect is recommended.
